The Birthday Princess

I can't believe it was a year ago that we welcomed Avery into our family. It has been an amazing year!! How things change in a year....

We celebrated quietly at home tonight. She got lots of presents from all over. Her Grandma and Grandpa and Nana and Papa got her a wagon. She got a bag full of clothes from Aunt Cynthia, some super cute Texas clothes from her Samoan Cousins, and her very first purse from Aunt Pele. We got her a little mommy doll, which she likes, but is a little afraid of, too.

My favorite part of the day was listening to her make "giraffe noises" with her dad after dinner...And when we went to Toys'r'us this afternoon and I found the Go Gabba Gabba doll, she kinda went a little nutso in the cart over it and did her little Avery dance...andwhen I watched her eat her chocolate birthday cake, I was kind of afraid. It was a little like something out of Wild Safari. I didn't know she could eat so much so fast. She is our little piggy and we love her so much.

Happy Birthday, Princess. Momma and Daddy love you more than words could ever describe. Thank you for all the love you give and all the joy you bring into our lives. Hugs and kisses forever....
